Bigg Boss OTT fame Urfi Javed is known for her bold fashion choices. Recently, she opened up about facing the casting couch during her early days in Mumbai. She told Bollywood Bubble, “The industry that we are in, is full of predators. We need to have that attitude, we need to say no, otherwise, people will take full advantage. Some people have even tried to do that. I have been through many incidents where I should have said ‘no’ but I couldn’t.”

The actress also narrated one incident that made her comfortable. “I remember when I newly shifted to Mumbai, a director called me for an audition at his home. Without a camera, he told me, ‘Act like you are my lover and come close to me and hug me.’ I was like what kind of an audition is this? Where is the camera? But, instead of saying no, I just hugged him hesitantly and told him, ‘Sir, I am leaving.” She said that such unpleasant incidences have taught her “important life lessons.

Meanwhile, on the professional front, the actress is likely to make her Bollywood debut with Ekta Kapoor’s Love, Sex, Aur Dhoka 2.
